Detailed Solution

Poland was losing its sense of national identity as a result of the Great Powers, Russia, Prussia, and Austria, dividing it up at the end of the 18th century. It was not a separate state that existed. In these conditions, the Polish people heavily embraced their culture to maintain their nationalist sentiments.
1)      They maintained their identity and solidarity through music. Karol Kurpinski continued the fight for national independence by presenting his Polish operas and music.
2)      Dances like the "polonaise" and "mazurka", which the Polish people used as nationalist symbols.
3)      The Russian language was mandated everywhere in the portion of Poland that was under Russian occupation, replacing Polish in schools. The Polish utilised their language to foster nationalist sentiments as a symbol of resistance.
4)      The usage of Polish became associated with the battle against Russian supremacy. The use of language in religious instruction and church assemblies was another kind of national resistance.
